Default better for 100-150 wet shot?

Trying to decide whether a boost-a-pump or 255lph inline would serve more function --

Im trying to be extra safe even though a 150 shot would probably work on stock fuel pump/injectors...

i have a 98 ss with simple stuff and then a TNT kit...


-- thanks --

A boost pump is not going to help much. You will only get the same flow the stock pump can flow you can not pull any more through it. I would rec. a Walbro GSS340 intank pump it is 255lph and you will get all that fuel.

just cut an access hole in the back to get to the pump.been there done that.on 98 you will need to drop the rear.100shot wet on stock pump you can get away with it.150 your rolling the dice.dont do it.

a 255 should increase the volume but not the psi

I also have a 98. One think nice about the 98, RaceTronix makes a direct drop in for our year. One of the upgrades this year will be this new fuel pump and 150 shot

Bought mine from http://www.thunderracing.com/index.c...yid=1080#T1844
